People's Armed Police

The Chinese People's Armed Police Force (Simplified Chinese: 中国人民武装警察部队), officially abbreviated to CAPF, is a Chinese law enforcement agency that specializes in military-style tactics in addition to performing fire rescue services. They are primarily tasked with protecting the Chinese people against threats such as terrorists and riots, and have been given full legal authority to do so.

History
The CAPF was established officially in 1982, although componets of what became the People's Armed Police existed shortly after the Chinese Communist Revolution. In contemporary history, the CAPF has played a major role in combating Japanese terrorist militias in the Third Sino-Japanese War, as well as suppressing enemy participants in the Second Chinese Civil War.

Equipment
Members of the CAPF are typically equipped with bullpup rifles and ballistic vests. Ushankas and green woodland camoflauge are worn as a part of the combat uniform. Some members are equipped with precision Sniper Rifles for long-range combat. All members are given radios with which they may communicate with one another.
